It was the genuine enthusiasm that came through in Christopher Buckley's N.Y. Times review that led me to read Less (thanks Powell's for the autographed copy). I can now join Buckley in asking “with regret why I wasn’t familiar with this author. My bad. His admirers have included John Updike, Michael Chabon, Dave Eggers and John Irving.” One disaster after another follows Arthur Less on a 50th birthday journey around the world, arranged so he can avoid attending the wedding of an ex-lover. Yet, as Buckley says, what bubbles up amid all these disasters isn’t self-pity but Arthur Less' warm humanity. By the end of your travels together you too will love Less.
